Yup. Now they have validation. Until trump throws them under the bus.The WSEs have been growing for years. Yes, Trump brought them out into the mainstream, but they've been there.

It appears the same for Presidents: Crime rose under Trump in 2020: https://www.axios.com/2021/09/27/us-2020-violent-crime-rate-rose-fbi-dataDoesn't seem to be. His ads tell everybody how tough he is on crime and attacks Democrats on crime. Still, murders continue to happen. Maybe governors have nothing to do with the crime rate.
By the numbers: There were an estimated 1,277,696 violent crimes and 6,452,038 property crimes in 2020.
- The estimated rate of violent crime — such as murder, rape, robbery and aggravated assault — was 387.8 offenses per 100,000 inhabitants, a 5.6% increase from 2019's rate.
- The projected number of aggravated assaults increased by 12.1%, and murder and nonnegligent manslaughter offenses increased by 29.4%. That’s the highest single-year spike in killings in at least six decades.
- The rate of property crimes like burglary, motor vehicle theft and arson was around 1,958.2 offenses per 100,000 inhabitants, an 8.1% decline from 2019.
BLM is an organization, and they clearly organized and led riots. MAGA is an idea, so it alone is not responsible for any riots. I can point to members of BLM or Antifa, I can't point to members of MAGA. Wearing a hat alone doesn't extend to membership.
Aside from that, BLM et al., are responsible for hundreds of violent riots. Ones you could associate with anything to do with MAGA could be counted on the fingers of one hand with some left over.
Another stupid ass MAGA parrot squawking the SOS....despite local law enforcement and DHS PROVING him wrong on every item.
But yet, the whole MAGA train connected to Jan. 6th can be excused and denied.

U.S. violent crime rate rose for first time in four years in 2020
Yeah, when we hear about things like trends in teen birth rates, crime, divorce, gas prices, inflation...we always want to blame some particular policy or politician when it is usually more complex.
People will blame crime on incarceration policies, bail, gun laws, etc. But if crime is increasing or decreasing, we usually find that same trend occurring in other states with different policies. Teen birth rates have been declining for years and people attribute that to sex education or lack thereof, abstinence... But, again, those same trends are occurring in every state regardless of policies.

I know......complex like putting fucking idiots in charge of government........don't we have a thread around here somewhere........something like "these idiots are in office"?........
Unwanted pregnancies declined across the board when Obama was in office, due in large part to access to affordable contraception.Teen birth rates have been declining for years and people attribute that to sex education or lack thereof, abstinence...

lets explore......what state.....we can compare statistics and see how they stack up against some of the really sick blue places like Chicago and that city in California with the prosecutor who doesn't prosecute......

Abortions continued a years long drop, but significantly under Obama.
Sometimes common sense policy is indeed to blame for certain social issues.

BLM is responsible for the riots.
MAGA is not responsible for the riots.
You have to compare states or cities. Murder should look at the state since it is under state law and prosecutors are enforcing state law.
I am in Texas.
Government idiots are not usually responsible for societal trends.
